Minnechaug Golf Course

With a late March round, pristine dry course is a fairy dream. The course was pretty wet in spots with a couple of 'God made ponds' where they would not be otherwise, but other than a couple plugs it was playable. Had a great time, staff very friendly, pace of play was fine. Restaurant/Bar was closed due to the holiday, but not unexpected.

We played 9 holes and the course was in very good shape especially if you stay in the fairway! Moderate difficulty with beautiful natural changes encompassing water and woods. The course is well maintained. We will be back!

The course is always in great shape. Very friendly staff.

Flow of golf moved along. Coarse was in great condition. Greens were in really good shape.

This is a great place !!

The staff is very welcoming and offered me a first responders rate.

The bar staff filled my water bottle and iced it up before heading out to play in the 90’ heat. The layout is amazing and my clubs got a workout as I used a bit of everything in my bag. Big shoutout to the crew maintaining this place the greens and fairways were mint!!!

Thanks again looking forward to playing here soon.

The course was a nice fun layout. The ranger on duty while we played severely interfered with us on 2 of the 9 holes we played. On the second hole he drove his cart through the fairway less than 100 yards in front of us while we were hitting our balls. He then came upon us again on the 8th hole, speeding along the cart path between us and the hole while we were actively teeing off. It was a 120 yard par 3 across a water Hazzard. He and the grounds keeper that was with him, proceeded to stop and walk across the green to the hole before we could tee off. All while waiving at us and telling us to hit, while they stood at the back of the green.

Over the past five years, I’ve played Minnechaug about ten times or so. A few times the play was slow, but today took 2 hours and 50 minutes to play this short nine. Add another twenty minute wait to tee off after our slotted time, and we were frustrated further with the situation.

As detailed in my previous reviews, the layout is a good one and worth playing. Conditions have improved in some places markedly, especially on the third hole, since I played Minnechaug last year.

the worst pace of play you could imagine. 2.5 hour round if your lucky - more like 3 hour round…friendly reminder this is 9 holes. backups cause golfer frustration and creates tension between other golf groups. won’t be coming back

If you are a decent golfer and prefer a reasonable pace of play, this course is not for you. There are a lot of beginners and youth that goof around, which is fine as long as they keep pace. However, the worst are the grown clowns that think they are good and hit into the groups ahead of them, having no clue or decorum. If you go early, beware of rude grounds keepers. If you are prepared for all of this, it's good value.

Food and beer selection are great when it is open :(. Would recommend taking down threatening “we will Sue you signs if your ball goes on someone’s property”. Warning signs are every ten feet in some spots, which makes one think you have a pretty good chance of being filmed and sued…..mind you the houses are well placed and not in the line of fire - we are talking about - don’t step over this line! I know of people that won’t play there because of the signs - has to be over 20 signs
